Introduction to protocols.io: Scientific collaboration through open protocols
Research articles and laboratory protocol organization often lack detailed instructions for replicating experiments. protocols.io is an open-access platform where researchers collaboratively create dynamic, interactive, step-by-step protocols that can be executed on mobile devices or the web. Researchers can easily and efficiently share protocols with colleagues, collaborators, the scientific community, or make them public. Real-time communication and interaction keep protocols up to date. Public protocols receive a DOI and enable open communication with authors and researchers to foster efficient experimentation and reproducibility.

Creating and controlling visual environments using BonVision
Real-time rendering of closed-loop visual environments is important for next-generation understanding of brain function and behaviour, but is often prohibitively difficult for non-experts to implement and is limited to few laboratories worldwide. We developed BonVision as an easy-to-use open-source software for the display of virtual or augmented reality, as well as standard visual stimuli. BonVision has been tested on humans and mice, and is capable of supporting new experimental designs in other animal models of vision. As the architecture is based on the open-source Bonsai graphical programming language, BonVision benefits from native integration with experimental hardware. BonVision therefore enables easy implementation of closed-loop experiments, including real-time interaction with deep neural networks, and communication with behavioural and physiological measurement and manipulation devices.
